Abstract
A system and method for triggering beamformed uplink (UL) physical layer protocol data units (PPDUs) are disclosed. The system comprises an access point (AP) and one or more stations (STAs). The AP sends a soliciting frame to the one or more STAs, wherein the frame comprises a null data packet, NDP, request, NDPR, indicator and receive an NDP PPDU from each of the one or more solicited STAs. The AP, then computes the precoder for each of the one or more solicited STAs and send the one or more solicited STA a trigger frame with a beamforming report. The AP receives from each of the STAs one or more beamformed UL data packets and sends a block acknowledgement to the one or more solicited STAs indicating the successful receipt of the one or more beamformed UL data packets.
